You and Me Under The World Tree

The settlement of the main goal of this mission scene was completed at this moment, and the combat skill points as a reward entered Hoder's character interface. If he is willing, he can now point all these skills that are not yet warmed up. They all hit the skill tree, but he didn't do that.

In fact, until now, Hoder has no intention to use the skill points he has accumulated. Whether it is free skill points or combat skill points, he has kept them untouched. Before he figures out the buff of the evil dragon curse on himself, He had no intention of adding points to the skill tree that came with it. 

And now, all that's left is...

 "Click"

 'Click'

 'Ka'

Just when Hoder was thinking that, a metallic sound of combat boots trampling the ground attracted his attention, and when he turned around, he saw the back of the eagle-patterned sheep helmet.

The Gothic prince didn't mean to say hello. This attitude of wanting to leave directly made Hoder a little helpless. Although he himself had no intention of communicating more, his silent attitude still made people feel subtle. .

However, His Highness the Prince is not the kind of person who goes his own way to the extreme. Although his silent attitude will inevitably offend people, he will not deliberately ignore others. Just like now, when he noticed the same full-faced person He stopped as the armed man stared at him.

"I will send the soldiers to set up camp in the Jura Mountains. Will you come?"

In a high position, His Royal Highness the Gothic Prince rarely asks other people any questions. As the prince second only to King Dietmar, the teachers who teach him usually only ask: Do you understand? He was never allowed to ask, so the moment he spoke, his tone and voice couldn't help but reveal a trace of awkwardness.

If he were a subject of the Gothic Kingdom, he could of course use his identity as a prince to give orders, but in fact he was not a subject, let alone a person from another country who had crossed the border, and he was also a powerful warrior.

"You should use a slightly gentler tone at this time. After all, you are 'asking' someone to do something." After hearing his awkward tone, Hoder couldn't help but say.

This is of course, and he didn't say anything wrong. There is an unwritten rule in Midgard: the strong should be treated with courtesy. Although not everyone will abide by this unwritten rule, Hoder's A tone that doesn't care at all about the identity of the other prince will not be criticized.

 Then it just ended like this...

Facing Hoder's apparently careless words, His Royal Highness just turned his head. Under the sunlight, his blood-red eyes were a bit uncomfortable.

After seeing those eyes, Hoder couldn't help but feel a little in his heart. Isn't this prince angry?

"Maybe..." After a while, His Highness the Prince said something like this, "I'm not used to 'asking' other people. If you don't want to follow, you can change the structure of the giant underground city . Tell me and I can pay you."

"No, I will go with you. My friends and I also have some grudges to settle with those giants."

After all, Hoder concealed the true purpose (mission) of his group, and this statement will not make people suspicious. After all, in the eyes of others, it is impossible for Hodder to understand that part of the story if he has not had any troubles with those giants. The kingdom of giants has not been discovered for a long time.

After all, the Jura Mountains are a desolate area. Because of the rugged roads, even if the Gothic Kingdom has actually included that area in its territory, no one usually goes there, let alone builds any fortifications there.

"You can go to my Bern City to rest for a while. It's not far from there." 

"But I heard it takes two days to get there." 

"That's an ordinary horse," the prince said.

The so-called two-day round trip refers to the round trip time after all. In fact, just going to Bern City only takes one day or even less. If it is a divine horse like Grani, it can even be done in half a day or a few hours to arrive.

This period of time is not unbearable, and at this moment, a new goal appears on his list:

[Mission: Border Trouble]

[Introduction: You already know what is going on here, go solve this problem]

[Mission goal: Go to Bern City for a short rest (0/1)]

[Task reward: The reputation of the camp 'Bern City' is raised to friendly]

Hoder was not surprised that missions or something appeared, but Hoder was very surprised by the new camp that appeared: Bern City. This is the city that belongs to the Gothic prince. According to legend, it appeared on the Gothic border after the prince was born. The city is called the 'God-given City', but this is not important now. What is important is that this camp is independent of the 'Gothic' camp, which has never appeared even in the Netherlands.

In the last version, the Netherlands camp and Völsung shared progress, but now, the game system clearly informed him that the prince has his own independent camp. Does this mean Goth's internal conflicts?

"That... uncle? What should we do?" Just after His Royal Highness the Gothic Prince left the warehouse, Siegfried asked Hoder in a low voice, and such questioning also dragged him out of his thoughts. out.

"Yeah." He nodded, "Let's go and see the legendary 'God-Given City'. I'm also very interested."

After all, it seems now that the Gothic Kingdom can be said to be an extremely contradictory country. Not only its army and people, but also His Royal Highness, everything seems very contradictory.

A country with a God-given city does not have a Valkyrie to protect it. The victorious prince who is clearly related to the God-given city does not like the Valkyries. In addition, the conflict between the people's beliefs and the king's royal power , excluding the game mechanism, the current Goth felt to Hoder like a dynamite barrel covered with gunpowder that only needed a little spark to explode.

"The only thing we need to care about is whether His Highness the Prince has a good mount of his own. Otherwise, according to the current world, we will have to spend one night on the road."

Then at this moment, a shrill neighing appeared outside the warehouse, and this shrill neighing definitely did not belong to Grani. It sounded like the roar of a war horse, but the scream mixed in it was not like an ordinary war horse. .

"That is...what?"

Outside the warehouse, a war horse neighed with flames wrapped around its body. Its mane was the flame, and the Gothic prince riding on it seemed to be sitting on a ball of flame.

"Come with me when you are ready."

Pulling the flaming reins, His Highness the Prince said.

However, Hoder just looked straight at his burning horse, because he could feel the hot wind.

"Don't you feel hot?" Finally, Hoder asked,

"Also, how did you get this horse?"

The tone was just like when he asked Valkyrie Thrúd about the wings when the game first started. After all, as a player, some things will never change.
